ant feeling apparent showed that meY
chants believed heavy business was il
sight. This was caused by rain reports
received yesterday from far western and
Fort Worth and Denver points and by
the rain throughout Tarrant and adjoining
counties.
Prices on all staples were firm and buy
ers had more confidence.
Wool men expect good receipts by the
end of this week.
DRY GOODS AND CLOTHING.
The feature of the New York trade this
week is the heavy movement of cot
ton goods, shipped in advance
of expected rate changes of April
| /. Western aud California job
Ders have been especially active
in placing orders for this reason, and
| commission men aud jObbers are active
in getting eff the goods. Spot business
! done by commission men has been irreg-
ular, but of a fair volume. JObbers are
fairly active in COttOns and wooden dress
| fabrics. The small stock of dress ging-
hams held has caused the bulk of the
| business done to be in goods sold to
arrive. A special drive in fancy prints
by Clafin & Co. is one of the features.
| IN woOlens heavy weight goods are
! still slow in movement. Purchases are
| restricted as is also production. Manu-
| factUrers of cloth are buying sparingly,
! but the market is steady. The prOduc-
| ton of ready-made goods has evidently
! been in excess of the demand, and time
is needed to readjust the balance of trade.
| In WOmen'6-Wear goods 10 particular
J oho 70 h,,, Il
has been OF seasOnable volume. General
woOlens are without special change TO
mention. Foreign wooden goods are
rather slow of sale at present, in sympa-
| thy with domestic goods. White goods
are rather quiet, waiting for the results
! of next weeks large sales of domestic
goods by auction. In all 5000 pieces of
white goods, and 1000 pieces of plain
and printed dress goods will be sold.
The failure of the dry goods classical
| ton committee to agree upon the plan of
/ action to be pursued in reference to the
| changes ordered for April I has caused
! the dry goods mems campaign to take 8
rather unfavOrable turn. The trouble
| appears to have been because of the effort
| of the western members of the committee
| to commit the other members of the
committee to demanding Of the
railroads concessions which two
of the New York men consid-
cred prejudicial to the New York trades
interest. The western members wished
original packages only to be put in the
third class. The New York members
wanted assorted packages to be put in
the same class also. Two of the com
mittee who are commission men sided
with the western member, and the New
York members thereupOn requested that
the whole matter be referred back to the
trade for decision Bradstreet's.
